I think one of
the best holiday combinations is a safari plus some beach
time. Kenya
and Zanzibar is a classic combo (plus its just fun to say
Zanzibar) but one of the hottest Indian Ocean
destinations is Mozambique and
specifically Benguerra Island.
Largely unspoiled and untouched, the island is home to a few
swanky eco hotels and a large population of endangered sea cows.
The newest place to stay there is Azura, a
member of Small
Luxury Hotels of the World. The resort has a grand total of
15 beachfront villas and each one comes with a private butler,
infinity pools and separate shower areas (heavenly). The cuisine
is all fresh and local, and guests can choose to eat anywhere
they want around the resort. Apart from being gloriously lazy and
relaxed, guests can sign up for excursions to watch sea cows or
spend their days sailing to deserted beaches.
